Kerberom is a tool aimed to retrieve ARC4-HMAC'ed encrypted Tickets Granting Service (TGS) of accounts having a Service Principal Name (SPN) within an Active Directory.
These tickets are stored in a format supported by John The Ripper bleeding-jumbo (https://github.com/magnumripper/JohnTheRipper) and hashcat (https://github.com/hashcat/hashcat).
Cracking these tickets gives you the associated accounts' password within the Active Directory.
You do not need any third-party tools that are OS dependents (like mimikatz or PowerShell) and do not need privileged rights to use kerberom

Prerequisites in explicit authentication:
- A domain account (eventually its SID if NTLM authentication is disabled upon Kerberos) and its credentials
- The address of the Domain Controler (can be a FQDN or IP address)
- The FQDN of the domain
- (Eventually a list of SPN with format "samaccountname$spn", field "samaccountname" can be "unknown")
Tickets can be retrieved using NTLM authentication but also Kerberos (this one needs you to provide the account SID as you will have to use it to make up your PAC) and providing password or hash (format "LM:NT") of the account used.
Prerequisites in implicit authentication (Windows only):
- Being in a user logged-on context
- The address of the Domain Controler (can be a FQDN or IP address)
- The FQDN of the domain
- (Eventually a list of SPN with format "samaccountname$spn", field "samaccountname" can be "unknown")
Pulling sources and building on-the-fly from Github:
pip install git+https://github.com/Fist0urs/kerberom
Fetch package available from Pypy:
pip install kerberom
For Windows users, the runnable kerberom binary will be located under Scripts/ in your Python installation.
Depending on your pyasn1 version, you may encounter parsing errors using explicit authentication.
usage: kerberom [-h] [--implicit IMPLICIT] [-u USERNAME]
[-d DOMAINCONTROLERADDR] [-o OUTPUTFILE]
[-iK INPUT_TGT_FILE] [-p PASSWORD | --hash HASH] [-v]
[--delta DELTA] [-k USER_SID | -i INPUTFILE_SPN]
Tool to retrieve all accounts having an SPN and their TGS in arc4-hmac
encrypted blob. Output is ready-to-crack for John The Ripper 'krb5tgs' and
hashcat 13100 formats, by jean-christophe.delaunay <at> synacktiv.com
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--implicit IMPLICIT use Windows implicit authentication mechanism. Format
is (FQDN/IP)_DomainController[:port]@FQDN_Domain. eg:
192.168.13.13:[email protected]
-u USERNAME, --username USERNAME
format must be userName@DomainFQDN. eg:
[email protected]
-d DOMAINCONTROLERADDR, --domainControlerAddr DOMAINCONTROLERADDR
domain Controler FQDN. Can be an IP but ldap retrieval
through kerberos method will not work (-k)
-o OUTPUTFILE, --outputfile OUTPUTFILE
outputfile where to store results and extracted
accounts having an SPN (to be used with '-i'
afterward)
-iK INPUT_TGT_FILE, --input_TGT_File INPUT_TGT_FILE
user's provided file containing TGT. Parsing is
determined by extension (.ccache for Linux , Windows
is yet to be implemented)
-p PASSWORD, --password PASSWORD
clear password submitted. Cannot be used with '--hash'
--hash HASH user's hash key. Format is "LM:NT". Cannot be used
with '-p'
-v, --verbose increase verbosity level
--delta DELTA set time delta in Kerberos tickets. Useful when DC is
not on the same timezone. Format is
"(+/-)hours:minutes:seconds", eg. --delta="+00:05:00"
or --delta="-02:00:00"
-k USER_SID, --user_sid USER_SID
force ldap SPN retrieval through kerberos, sid is
mandatory. Cannot be used with '-i'
-i INPUTFILE_SPN, --inputfile_spn INPUTFILE_SPN
retrieve TGS associated with SPN in user's provided
file. Format must be 'samaccountname$spn' on each
line, 'samaccountname' can be 'unknown'
